    LifeSketch
    Capt John Samuel Moore did not immigrate to Virginia until 1620 and his wife Elizabeth in 1622.
    So if the birth date and location is correct, Katherine could not have been their child.
    Also a Christening was usually within a few days of birth so a Christening in England in 1635 does not fit in either with her listed birth date or the location of her parents (in Virginia by then).
    If her birth and death dates are correct, she would have been 112 years old when she died - highly unlikely.

Peter (son of Peter "The Envoy" HAYES and Ann) was born about 1650 in Pagan Creek, Isle Of Wight County, Virginia; died on 10 Nov 1720 in Isle of Wight, Virginia, British Colonial America.

    Notes:

    Will: August 03, 1760 Halifax Co., NC Probate: March 1761 Halifax Co., NC

    Peter Hayes and Martha Sledge are reported by some to have had 12 children one of whom was John Hays. (Once in North Carolina the spelling of the name changed from Hayes to Hays) His son, John Hays and his wife Phebe had at least six children one of whom was another John Hays (1735-1782).

    Peter joined the migration of settlers pushing south into the great virgin forests of the Tidewater, after the Tuscarora War. From the earliest records it would seem that Peter who homesteaded on Urashaw Swamp, and his sons, were more interested in buying and selling land than in farming. The many grants and estate transfers in which they were involved would indicate that the Hayes men obtained a comfortable living from real estate, or what would be considered comfortable in those frontier days.

    INFO: Peter Hayes of Urashaw born on the Hayes Blackwater plantation in Isle of Wight Co. Just across the river in Surry County was the plantation of Charles Sledge. Peter married Martha Sledge, daughter of Charles. Peter Hayes was the executor of Mary (Clarke) Sledge's will (Boddie, Southside Va. Families, Vol. I, p. 366). The record of a grant of 640 acres in the Urashaw Swamp region has not been found, but it is mentioned in a land transfer. In 1720 Peter Hayes and his eldest son William were listed as having arms and able to defend the colonies against the Indians. This list constitutes a military roster for Capt. Patterson's company, and was made up of all the male residents of the upper part of Chowan Precinct, an area today found in Hertford and Northampton Counties. (Hathaway, Register, Vol. I, p. 443). His will dated August 3, 1760 and probated in March 1761 in Halifax County, North Carolina, names his wife Martha as executrix and gives each of his younger children five shillings. His wife was to have the estate and to see that the childr4en were educated and cared for. The three eldest children were not mentioned in the will; they had been established with their own families.
